Chapter 69 - The Eight Disciplines
In the camp tent of the commander of the Peking University Battalion, all the senior generals of Zhao Fanjun were looking at Zhao Fan with admiring eyes.
There is no special reason, it's because Zhao Fan is too good at pulling and blowing...
Not only were the big-headed soldiers below stunned, but even their generals were no exception, and they were now more and more unable to understand their prince.
First of all, he said that the enemy was extremely ferocious, one was more perverted than the other, and he didn't let go of even the men, and he made it as if the enemy might secretly fight tomorrow, and he also made a limerick, if he didn't train hard today, he would burp on the battlefield tomorrow......
In order to solve the problem of soldiers, Zhao Fan launched a recommendation system, anyone who recommends a certain number of civilians and becomes a qualified soldier will be rewarded accordingly, and even if a certain number of soldiers are recommended, they can also get some official positions, and those who recommend some special talents will be rewarded by Zhao Fan personally, and the highest can be given a knighthood!
This kind of similar way of pulling people's heads has brought a steady stream of suitable soldiers and various talents to the Shouwang Legion, and it has also become a special effect means for the Shouwang Legion to conquer the world and accumulate abundant capital, and all Zhao Fan needs to pay is some money and some petty officials, or some false titles, this deal is definitely quite cost-effective, and it can be called a stroke of genius.
And Zhao Fan also established a new assessment mechanism, each training project has assessment standards, three consecutive assessment standards will be eliminated, not allowed to stay in the army, ordinary soldiers will also be in accordance with the assessment results, the corresponding military merits, the specific evaluation of superiors, detailed into three, six, nine, etc., military salaries are also different, although the difference between each level is not far, but the difference between the first-class soldiers and the ninth-level soldiers is very far.
This has also created a strange phenomenon later, people's armies are all pulling strong ding, whether it works or not, as long as it is a living one, but Zhao Fan's Shouwang army has always maintained a certain standard, ordinary people may not be able to enter even if they want to, not only that, but there are many soldiers, after being eliminated by Zhao Fan's army, they even cried Taotao, and would rather choose to stay in the army as a miscellaneous soldier than leave.
In order to avoid cheating, the army has also established a corresponding supervision mechanism, specifically on the assessment of the issue of review, and for the assessment of the soldiers, from time to time random inspection, once found to be fraudulent, will be punished by the third-level officers, of course, the supervision office is not a violent agency or a powerful agency, because the supervision department only has the power to inspect and summarize the report, but does not have any law enforcement power, this is also to avoid the supervision of the end of the big end, become similar to the Jinyi Wei or the East Factory and the like.
In terms of military discipline, Zhao Fan also emphasized that soldiers take obedience to orders as their duty, and any battle plan that has been issued must be thoroughly implemented, even if there is an abyss in front of it, and the order is to jump, then it must be jumped, and there is no reason to talk about it.
Of course, when Zhao Fan made these reforms, he did not enforce them by force, but moved them with affection, understood them with reason, and induced them to benefit.
Explain to them thoroughly why we do this, what are the benefits, if we don't, what are the disadvantages, and what we should do right, and then give specific examples and demonstrations.
Zhao Fan is convinced of one sentence, that is, no one refuses to change, but everyone refuses to be changed.
At the end of the day, Zhao Fan also took the opportunity to release the new eight disciplines.
Article 1: Those who disobey military orders will be killed without mercy.
The second is that those who plunder the people will not be killed.
Article 3: Those who embezzle and seize it will not be killed.
Fourth, those who rape ** women will be killed without forgiveness.
Article 5: Those who collaborate with the enemy and commit treason shall be killed without mercy.
Sixth, those who murder their comrades will be killed.
Article 7: Those who gather gamblers in the army will not be killed.
Article 8: Those who delay military aircraft will not be punished.
At the last moment, Zhao Fan especially emphasized that in the Shouwang Army, this is an iron law, which everyone must abide by, and anyone who violates it, including himself, must be implemented in accordance with the eight disciplines, and there is no emotion to talk about.
As soon as these eight disciplines came out, the officers and soldiers of the Shouwang Legion could be said to be related, especially the gambling in the army, which was simply going to kill them, after all, there was no special entertainment in these years, so all the soldiers could only get together in their spare time, gambling a little money or something, it has long become a habit.
Now that it's suddenly gone, everyone still feels very unaccustomed to it.
But Zhao Fan has his own thoughts, the harm of gambling, as a modern person, he really understands it too well, once addicted, it is easy for people to lose their minds, after all, a poor and crazy person, that can do anything.
When he first introduced this eight disciplines, he was also met with strong opposition, especially the senior generals in the army were particularly puzzled, and even Qiao Xinchao felt that this eight disciplines were too strict.
Everyone unanimously felt that things like plundering the people, raping ** women and the like were too normal in this era, and it was simply that every army would have this situation, even if it was a Praetorian Guard, this kind of problem was unavoidable, as long as you didn't kill people, the most you could do was to catch it and beat it with a military stick.
But Zhao Fan doesn't think so, as a traverser, he understands the importance of the people's hearts too well, just like Mencius said, the people are important, the monarch is light, and the society is secondary, the common people are the foundation of a dynasty, everything they have is produced by the people, food, shelter, clothing, and all of them are inseparable from the support of the people.
If an army fails to protect even its own people, it is the most serious dereliction of duty, let alone to oppress them, it is simply digging its own grave and cutting off its own foundation.
What's more, Wei Zheng often told Emperor Taizong that water can carry boats and cook porridge, oh, no, it can also capsize boats, and the strength of the people cannot be ignored.
When Zhao Fan moved Wei Zheng and Tang Taizong out, Qiao Xinchao and the others had nothing to say, although the Tang Dynasty was on the verge of collapse, it did not mean that the two great gods of Tang Taizong and Wei Zheng had no weight......
So, the eight disciplines were thus set, before the parade, Zhao Fan arranged for everyone to go down to do work, and the generals went back to find their own thousands of households to do work, and after the thousands of households agreed, they continued to go back to find their captain to do work, and the captain found Shi Chang to do work, and Shi Chang found his own henchmen to do work......
Therefore, when Zhao Fan stood on the podium and announced the implementation of the eight disciplines, the acceptance of the following was unusually high, and it was implemented without any obstacles.
When the big-headed soldiers saw that their superiors, superiors, and top superiors all stood up in support, they didn't think much about it, and expressed their support one after another.
On the one hand, the bigwigs are all supportive, and they still have opinions, isn't that looking for death? On the other hand, there must be more thought of above than these big soldiers, and since they have all stood up to support, then what do they have to consider.
Finally, in a cheer, the eight disciplines officially landed!
And what supports the smooth operation of all this, in addition to Zhao Fanchao's high personal prestige, is the unimaginable military salary of the Shouwang Legion, as well as the perfect welfare treatment, and the Shouwang Legion's military achievements are no longer limited to silver money, with the support of the civilian official group headed by Qiao Xinchao, it has also begun to gradually include other rewards such as fields, houses, and slaves.
Although the barrier to entry will be high at first, everything will become accessible over time.
There is no problem in this world that money can't solve, if there is, it must be that you don't have enough money, and what Zhao Fan has to do now is to find a way to get so much money......
